Spokane Court Proposes Reason for

RnnKANE. Wash.. Jan. 21. (Special.)
It developed tonight that the Great North

Judge Gordon.
The Information on which the warrant.
wa Issued for Gordon's arrest was drawn
on a telegraphic order. sent, to Chief Dep
uty Prosecuting Attorney . J. toiamey
Webster, from Seattle by Prosecuting At

tion based its finding in the Investigation
of Root. " '
Pugh's action followed a conference
with Spokane . Superior Court Judges,
who recommended that he.make the per
sonal inspection, and if he rouna tacts

don. The Judses decinca mat
disclosed were such that . a .criminal

would be unnecessary.
'In proceeding against Judge Gordon.
the Prosecuting Attorneys onice .

performance, of -its duty to the state,
said Deputy Prosecutor J- Stanley Web-
te-r. "The prosecution begun against
Judge Gordon was not started ty the
Great Northern. I know that it is com
ovon talk that the Great Northern does
not want to see Judge Gordon tried on a
charge connected with his alleged short
age In his accounts with the company,
which la said to be something like $75,000,
but If tie is short a large sum of money
nd the railroad does not desire that any
thing shall be done about It, the reason
for It should be ascertained for the public
good."

At Portland the river is still a raging

$8000 In Portland.
ST. LOUIS. Mo., Jan. 21. (Special.)
Don - Carlos -Wisely, - after telMng or
having "planted' over $8000 in the
safety vaults of the Portland Trust
Company, dictated a confession of how
he robbed the Old National Bank, of
Spokane, to raise money 'to learn the
plumbing trade.
In August. 1908, I obtainea a po
sition at the bank as blotter clerk for
the paying teller; said. Wisely: In his
statemenL "I . worked overtime , at
night to study the' bank's system of
handling money.. It took . me .jusi
weeks to find out there was a loop
v,ni. In the .batik's dealings .with the
clearing house, through which I could
obtain a. large amount of money.
"Kirst of all I stole $1000 iu silver
from the vault and covered up the
shortage by making a fictitious entry
In one of the books.' Then,- when a
check for $10,000 had passed through
my hands and from the bookkeeper
to the cashier and then to the state
ment clerk,' I got It again and made
another entry of It. After It passed
through' the various hands a second
time I stopped it again. Later, when
another $10,000 reached the bank from
another Institution, I took the first
one to the clearing house and got gold
certificates for it.
"I left Spokane immediately after
getting the money and went to Port
land, where I opened an account under
the assumed name of Harry Moore.
SEEKS INTEREST FUNDS
Daughter of Marshall Meld Wants

CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-Speclal.)-Mrs.
Ethel Fleld-Beatty, of England, daugh
ter of Marshall Field, filed a petition in
the " Probate Court today to determine
w ,iht to a portion of the income on
$6,000.0(0 set apart in three trust funds
created for her benefit by ner lamer.
The. Interest is for the period between
Mr. Field's death and tne day the funds
were placed in the .hands of the trustees.
If the court sustains her plea, Mrs.
Beatty will receive about $S5.000. The
trustees contend mat Mrs. Beatty was
not entitled to the income until the prop
erty concerned came into ner nanus.
income on a trust fund of $1,000,000 was
to be paid to Mrs. Beatty during her life.
Mrs. Beatty has been a resiaeni oi
t.n more than 1 years. In 1901 she waj
married to Captain David Beatty and has
one son by this marriage. Arthur Ronald
Lambert Field Tree, born or a prior mar
riage, is also her son.

WASHINGTON". Jan. 21. In conversa
tion with some of his visitors, particularly
Senators Flint of Colorado and Fulton of
Oregon, President Roosevelt today went
so far as to say he thought nothing pend
ing In Congress or any of the differences
between himself and Congress were of
half the importance of the Japanese-California
question. Ho urged the necessity
of California's Congressional delegation
using Its influence as freely as possible
against what might be resented by Japan.
Mr. Flint and other Callfornlans have
told the President plainly that, while they
are willing to help him. they do not place
much confidence in the figures of the
Government a to the decreasing number
of Japanese in this country. The facts
dispute the figures, they declare, and add
that the Japanese are taking possession
of whole towns.
The President advised his California vls-
.i,t h.. would like to seo a fair trial
given to the promise of the Japanese to
decrease tho number of their citizens in
this country and. If thia trial shows that
there Is no decrease, then ne wm m
